Summary

Nancy R. Kordyak Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 718 students in the Rialto Unified School District in Fontana, CA, where a majority of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Academically, the school is a mid-performer in its district, ranking around the 49th percentile statewide, but it consistently outperforms the Rialto Unified average in math and science. However, its performance has declined recently and shows significant grade-level gaps, with 5th-grade math being a particular concern. The school has made impressive progress in reducing chronic student absenteeism, cutting the rate by more than half over two years to 18.7%, which is better than the district average and some neighbors like Sierra Lakes Elementary.

When compared to schools in neighboring districts, a clear gap emerges. While Kordyak outperforms other Rialto Unified schools like Dr. Edward Fitzgerald Elementary, it lags far behind higher-performing schools in the Etiwanda Elementary district, such as Falcon Ridge Elementary and Cecilia Lucero Solorio Elementary. Notably, Kordyak spends more per student than these higher-achieving Etiwanda schools. Within its own student body, the school has shown notable success with Hispanic students and English Learners in past years.
